It turned out that the lockups are triggered by bec3cfdca36b
("net: skb_segment() provides list head and tail") in Linux 3.18
and that Eric Duzamet has kindly provided a fix for broadcom-sta:

@Broadcom: Please consider releasing a new driver version which
incorporates that patch. The latest version 6.30.223.271 of your
driver is still missing it even though the issue has existed for
almost 18 months now.
Nevertheless I amended my patch to follow the reset procedure you
specified above, just to cover all bases. Thanks Michael.
Best regards,
Lukas
